Ukrainians were informed about the expenses when re-registering a house in 2025
According to 'Khvili', this was reported by 'Mayak' publication.
When changing the ownership of real estate, there are tax obligations, especially when selling private houses. When planning such an operation, it is worth considering the necessary financial expenses.
Ukrainian legislation provides for three categories of taxes when dealing with private real estate.
- PIT (personal income tax) is paid by the seller at a rate of 5% of the object's price if the property has been owned for less than three years or for repeated sales of a percentage of the house's price.
- The military tax of 1.5% of the cost is paid by the seller regardless of the ownership period.
- The contribution to the Pension Fund is 1% of the cost and is paid by the buyer, if this is not their first real estate acquisition.
The estimated value of the house is the basis for calculating taxes. To conduct this procedure, it is necessary to involve an appraiser and also pay for a notary to formalize the sale agreement.
Details and information about the appraisal procedure
Appraising a house for sale costs approximately 1000 hryvnias. In addition, when transferring ownership rights to the house, it is necessary to conduct an appraisal of the land plot, which also takes Time and money.
When formalizing the sale agreement, one should keep in mind the state duty and notary fees. Moreover, the buyer must register ownership of the property through the CNAP or notary.
Be aware of the expenses
Taxes and mandatory payments must be taken into account when selling a house. The price of the appraiser's services, the notary, as well as the level of payment, depend on the region. It is advisable to agree with the buyer on the distribution of financial obligations, as the legislation does not contain clear guidelines on this.
With proper preparation for the transaction and taking into account all extra expenses, the re-registration of the house can proceed smoothly and without unpleasantness for all parties.
